It will help you in mixing the special bonsai soil mixtures, the techniques for planting and pruning of bonsais, wiring techniques for bonsais, and an instructional guide for the most popular bonsais which informs you as to when to fertilize your bonsai (and what type of fertilizer to use), when to debud your bonsai, transplant your bonsai, trim the root ball of your bonsai and what to watch for with respect to parasites and diseases that may afflict your bonsai.

If you wish to know how to prematurely age your bonsai (â€œjinâ€) this book simplifies the manner in which to do so such that your planting, which may only be 2 or 3 years old, can be aged to look many years older.

In essence, this book explains most, if not all, of the bonsai basics and can turn you into someone whose hobby can become creation of these exquisite, miniature wonders which resemble their giant friends of nature but can be kept on your own kitchen window.
